Abstract
In order to evaluate the structural performance of repaired RC beams with partially debonded longitudinal rebars, structural experiments were conducted. In the experiments, real-scale and half-scale RC beam specimens underwent cyclic loading of 1.0% or less in terms of deformation angle, repaired with epoxy resin injection method, and multiple cyclic loading again. As a result of the experiments, damage was suppressed in specimens with partially debonded longitudinal rebars even after repairs. Further, the specimens with partially debonded longitudinal rebars exhibited high recovery of initial stiffness after repair compared to the specimen with bonded longitudinal rebars. In addition, from study of the costs required to repair cracks, it was confirmed that RC beams with partially debonded longitudinal rebars used smaller quantities of materials used for repairs and could potentially reduce repair cost by approximately 50% compared to RC beams having standard bonding properties.
期刊介绍:
Advances in Structural Engineering was established in 1997 and has become one of the major peer-reviewed journals in the field of structural engineering. To better fulfil the mission of the journal, we have recently decided to launch two new features for the journal: (a) invited review papers providing an in-depth exposition of a topic of significant current interest; (b) short papers reporting truly new technologies in structural engineering.
